Chapter 1080: Chapter 1080: Mission Accomplished

“If anything happens, I’ll call you. You’ve had enough trouble tonight,” Cuifen said apologetically.

Xi Fengchang had a bit of doubt, “Is this medicine really that effective? In such a short time, Cuifen seems to have recovered.”

“Yes, uncle, I really feel better. I’ll go to the hospital to clean up and see if there are any scars left,” Cuifen said earnestly.

Then she said to Xi Dazhuang, “Dazhuang, you should think about how to explain today’s situation to your manager tomorrow.”

Xi Dazhuang hesitated slightly but couldn’t resist Cuifen, so he nodded his head.

With Cuifen okay, Xi Dazhuang felt relieved, but the thought of explaining the matter to Chu Qingxue tomorrow gave him a headache instantly.

“Hahaha, mission accomplished, do you want a kiss?”

On the other side, watching all this unfold through real-time surveillance, Ye Chenfeng burst into a smile.

“Hmm!”

To his shock, Chu Qingxue actually agreed and leaned forward with her fragrant lips.

Ye Chenfeng: “…”.

The atmosphere instantly became unbearably awkward; Ye Chenfeng didn’t know what to do.

“By the way, does what you made really work?” Chu Qingxue changed the topic, breaking the awkwardness.

“Yes, but it’s slow-acting; it takes one or two hours to take effect,” Ye Chenfeng said.

A flicker of reluctance flashed across Chu Qingxue’s face, “Aren’t we being too cruel?”

“Hehe, you’re still too kind. The business world is ruthless. If you hadn’t discovered it today, you might have been the one getting hurt. Your outcome could have been worse than hers. I don’t think it’s excessive at all; she deceived my brother with these tactics, and sparing her was already the most merciful option,” Ye Chenfeng’s eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty intent.

“Alright.” Chu Qingxue nodded helplessly.

“By the way, think about how to explain this to Dazhuang,” Ye Chenfeng advised.

Chu Qingxue immediately objected, glaring at Ye Chenfeng, “Why don’t you do it yourself? Dazhuang is your brother, and it was your idea.”

“Hey, hey, hey, I did it all for your company, otherwise your losses this time would have been huge,” Ye Chenfeng said.

Chu Qingxue rolled her eyes, “Don’t you also have shares in the company?”

Ye Chenfeng was at a loss for words, reluctantly saying, “I’m not good at explaining. If Dazhuang knew I dealt with a woman this way, I’d lose face.”

“Male chauvinism!” Chu Qingxue gave Ye Chenfeng a fierce look.

But judging by her expression, she had already agreed to the task. With that, a weight lifted from Ye Chenfeng’s heart since it wouldn’t be easy for him to explain this to Xi Dazhuang personally.

Meanwhile, after Cuifen left, she didn’t go to a nearby hospital but went to the roadside, where soon a black sedan arrived.

Cuifen got in the car without hesitation and left, headed towards a resort in the Capital City.

In a lavish room at the resort, Ye Mingtian, dressed in casual attire, still appeared as elegant as ever.

“Mr. Ye, I’ve heard that Wang Yan has succeeded,” said one of the secretaries.

“Dr. Jack’s team is already in place. Once the sample arrives, they will immediately begin research and are expected to extract the components within three days. By that time, we will release it before the Chu Corporation,” said another secretary.

Ye Mingtian swirled the red wine in his glass, smiling and nodding, “Very good.”

“Mr. Ye, Wang Yan has arrived.”

Just as Ye Mingtian finished speaking, someone arrived outside, and the Wang Yan they mentioned was indeed Xi Dazhuang’s girlfriend, Cuifen.

“Haha, Wang Yan, you’ve done very well,” Ye Mingtian praised, glancing at Wang Yan’s disheveled appearance.

Wang Yan smiled, “Mr. Ye, right after obtaining the sample, I rushed over without even washing my face.”

“Very good!” But then Ye Mingtian changed the subject, “By the way, is the sample genuine?”

Wang Yan confidently nodded, “Mr. Ye, rest assured, the sample was personally brought from the Chu Corporation’s secret lab by Xi Dazhuang. There’s no way it could be fake. Moreover, when I first applied it, there was no odd reaction, just a cool and comfortable sensation. Even if it doesn’t have those miraculous effects, it’s far superior to regular cosmetics.”

Ye Mingtian’s furrowed brows gradually relaxed as he nodded approvingly, “Good, I understand. Take the sample to Dr. Jack immediately.”

“Understood, Mr. Ye.”

The secretary hurriedly took the sample and left in a rush.

“Wang Yan, you go and rest. Your reward has already been deposited into your account,” Ye Mingtian said.

“Thank you, Mr. Ye!” Wang Yan, full of excitement, happily left.

When everyone was gone and only a secretary remained in the room, Ye Mingtian’s smile deepened, “Qingxue, let’s wait and see, shall we? The business world is like a battlefield; don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Mr. Ye, Dr. Jack and his team are indeed high-efficiency. The whole team quickly got involved,” another secretary said excitedly as they entered.

Ye Mingtian gave a calm smile, “I hired the best from the United Kingdom.”

…

Thanks to Ye Mingtian’s special permission, Wang Yan was allowed to stay at the resort today.

Looking at the palace-like luxurious suite, Wang Yan was so excited that she almost gave a shout, never daring to dream that she could stay in such a place.

“Xi Dazhuang, you fool, still want to marry me? Dream on, what qualifications do you have? No, I need to bathe quickly to wash off their stench,” Wang Yan said with a face of disdain and disgust, completely different from the simple village girl Xi Dazhuang first met.

“Let’s wash the stuff off my face first!”

Wang Yan entered the bathroom and washed her face clean.

Seeing her fair complexion reflected in the mirror, Wang Yan’s mouth curled into a smug smile.

“Hmph, it seems like my skin has improved, even more supple than before. Could it be the effect of the Spirit of Nature?” Wang Yan said with a smile.

“Hmm, why does it feel a bit burning, slightly hot on my face?” Suddenly Wang Yan felt a burning sensation, or rather, a heat on her face.

“Could it be the effect of the Spirit of Nature? It was cool at first, now it’s just a bit warm.”

Wang Yan said, puzzled.

But she gradually realized something was wrong; the tactile sensation on her face was increasingly fiery, and the reflection in the mirror showed redness spreading across her face.

Unlike a natural, healthy flush, the red patches on her face seemed to be clumps of coagulating blood.

“It’s getting hotter, even painful. Ah!”

Soon after, Wang Yan screamed in pain from the searing pain.
